Establishing wireless time-triggered communication using a firefly clock synchronization approach
In South-East Asia, huge swarms of fireflies synchronously emit light flashes to attract mating partners. The underlying principle can be used to implement a robust and scalable d...

On Self-stabilizing Synchronous Actions Despite Byzantine Attacks
Consider a distributed network of n nodes that is connected to a global source of “beats”. All nodes receive the “beats” simultaneously, and operate in lock-step. A scheme ...

A Unified Fault-Tolerance Protocol
Davies and Wakerly show that Byzantine fault tolerance can be achieved by a cascade of broadcasts and middle value select functions. We present an extension of the Davies and Waker...
